I have taken my headlights apart tooo many times now. Though I do want a clear strip, I just painted mine black. BTW did you bake your headlights or use a heat gun?

I think the ones you have right now look great, and also at night you get the amber glow. If I had mines like yours I would not get these ones...

This may be a stupid question (and the wrong forum) but after looking through the instructions I'm wondering if handling the ballast in the assembly is a potential hazard. Does the ballast hold a charge, like a capacitor? Or is it completely benign when there is no power running to it?

Thx

Thank you chaknchngo and ricks2k for making these diffuser. Ricks2k makes some quality diffusers as I have been using them for years now on the Acura TLs.

If anyone is interested I would be able to install the diffusers in the headlights. I've been modifying headlights for years now and have done many people on this forum and others. I'm located in NJ close to NYC and if you are not in the area you can mail them to me. For a simple modification as clearing or painting the headlight. They are done the same day as received and mailed out the next business day. My headlights are guaranteed to be completely sealed or I will redo them for FREE..

Send me a PM or email me at Mr_Zipps@yahoo.com
